[0029] The drawings in the present invention are not drawn strictly according to the actual scale, and the specific size and quantity of each structure can be determined according to actual needs. The drawings described in the present invention are only schematic diagrams of the structures.
[0030] The lithium-ion battery safety storage device provided by the present invention comprises a bottom plate slot for uniformly storing a plurality of battery modules 1, wherein the battery module 1 comprises a battery cell 4 arranged in a housing, such as Figure 2 to Figure 6 It also includes: a liquid cooling plate 5, which covers the top of each battery module 1 and is connected to the side wall of the bottom plate groove. A gas storage bag 3 is arranged on the upper surface of the liquid cooling plate 5. Flame-retardant gas is stored in the gas storage bag 3. The gas storage bag 3 is connected to a plurality of gas pipelines. Each gas pipeline passes through the liquid cooling plate 5 and is connected to the inside of one of the shells for conveying flame-retardant gas to the inside of the shell. Meanwhile, an exhaust hole 7 is arranged on the shell, which discharges the flame-retardant gas and takes away heat to achieve cooling. A solenoid valve 12 is arranged on the gas pipeline inside each shell, and a temperature sensor 11 is arranged inside the outer shell of each battery module 1. When the temperature sensor 11 detects that the internal temperature of the shell of the corresponding battery module 1 reaches the threshold temperature, the battery pack master controller controls the corresponding solenoid valve 12 to open until the temperature sensor 11 detects that the internal temperature of the shell of the battery module 1 drops below the threshold temperature, and the battery pack master controller controls the solenoid valve 12 to close.
[0031] In the present lithium-ion battery safety storage device, the liquid cooling plate 5 is used to absorb the heat of the battery module 1, and at the same time, the liquid cooling plate 5 is used to cool the flame-retardant gas, and the heat in the shell is taken away by the cooled flame-retardant gas. The temperature sensor 11 is used to detect the temperature in the shell in real time. When the temperature sensor 11 detects that the internal temperature of the shell of the corresponding battery module 1 reaches the threshold temperature, the battery pack master controller controls the corresponding solenoid valve 12 to open, so that the flame-retardant gas in the gas storage pack 3 enters the shell, takes away the heat in the shell and is discharged from the exhaust hole 7, so that the temperature sensor 11 detects that the internal temperature of the shell of the battery module 1 drops below the threshold temperature, and the battery pack master controller controls the solenoid valve 12 to close.
[0032] This lithium-ion battery safety storage device can monitor the temperature inside the shell in real time, and intelligently cool down the shell when the temperature inside the shell exceeds the threshold, thereby avoiding the occurrence of thermal runaway caused by the temperature not being able to be lowered in time, inhibiting the spread of thermal runaway between modules, protecting the battery module, and reducing losses.
[0033] In this embodiment, Figure 2 to Figure 6 Each of the shells is provided with an exhaust hole 8, which is close to the exhaust hole 7. The exhaust holes 8 are connected to one end of a branch exhaust pipe 9. The other end of each branch exhaust pipe 9 is provided with a check valve to prevent the flame-retardant gas from flowing back into the shell. The check valve is connected to the main exhaust pipe 10. An exhaust pump is provided at the end of the main exhaust pipe 10. The main exhaust pipe 10 is fixedly set on the liquid cooling plate 5. When the solenoid valve 12 is opened, the battery pack master controller controls the exhaust pump to start synchronously to guide the flame-retardant gas in the outer shell of each battery module 1 to the atmosphere through the branch exhaust pipe 9 and the main exhaust pipe 10. When the solenoid valve 12 is closed, the battery pack master controller controls the exhaust pump to close synchronously.
[0034] By turning on the vacuum pump, the gas inside the shell is quickly discharged into the atmosphere, avoiding the problem of untimely gas discharge, speeding up the gas discharge, and at the same time, the battery cell 4 is cooled faster. The check valve is used to prevent the gas between multiple shells from flowing into each other.
[0035] In this embodiment, Figure 2 to Figure 7A gas sensor 6 is provided in the shell, and the multiple battery modules 1 are arranged in a matrix in the bottom plate groove. Insulation plates 2 are provided on both sides of each row of battery modules 1, and grooves are provided on the bottom plate grooves on both sides of each column of multiple battery modules 1. A spring 16 is provided in the groove, one end of the spring 16 abuts against the bottom surface of the groove, and the other end is connected to an insulation movable plate 15. The insulation movable plate 15 slides vertically in the slide groove 14, and the slide groove 14 is fixedly set on the groove. An iron core 17 is provided on the insulation movable plate 15, and the iron core 17 is adsorbed and cooperated with the electromagnet, and the electromagnet is set at the notch edge of the groove; at the same time, a folded insulation layer 13 is provided in the groove, and the insulation layer 13 is connected to the spring 16.
[0036] When the temperature inside the shell exceeds the threshold, the battery pack master controller controls the electromagnet to cut off the power, and the spring 16 is released to unfold the folded insulation layer 13, sealing the battery module 1 with increased temperature and preventing heat from being transferred to the adjacent battery module. The cooling flame-retardant gas is used to diffuse and dilute the high-temperature gas, and the spring 16 drives the insulation layer 13 to unfold, so that the inside of the battery module 1 can be effectively cooled, delaying the thermal runaway process and inhibiting the spread of thermal runaway between modules.
[0037] In this embodiment, Figure 1 to Figure 7 The battery pack master controller is electrically connected to a buzzer, which is used to send a prompt sound to the outside world. The first threshold temperature is set to 60°C. When the temperature sensor 11 detects that the internal temperature of the shell of the battery module 1 is less than or equal to 60°C, the battery pack master controller controls the temperature sensor 11 to continue detecting; when the temperature sensor 11 detects that the internal temperature of the shell of the battery module 1 is greater than 60°C, the corresponding solenoid valve 12 opens, the gas pipeline releases gas, and the vacuum pump is turned on to take away the heat inside the shell until the temperature sensor 11 detects that the internal temperature of the shell of the battery module 1 is less than 60°C. The battery pack master controller controls the solenoid valve 12 to close, the vacuum pump is turned off, and the buzzer releases a monitoring signal to prompt management personnel to pay attention to the battery status, forming a first-level warning.
[0038] In this embodiment, Figure 1After the vacuum pump is turned on, when the temperature sensor 11 detects that the internal temperature of the shell of the battery module 1 is continuously greater than or equal to 60°C or the gas sensor 6 detects that the battery cell 4 releases a specific gas, the battery pack master controller controls the corresponding solenoid valve 12 and the vacuum pump to be continuously opened, and controls the corresponding electromagnet to be powered off, and the iron core 17 and the electromagnet are released from the adsorption state. At this time, the spring 16 pushes the movable plate 15 so that the movable plate 15 is close to the liquid cooling plate 5, and the spring 16 pulls the insulation layer 13 to unfold, so as to shield the battery module 1 and close the exhaust hole 7 to prevent heat from being transferred to the adjacent battery module 1; when the temperature sensor 11 detects that the internal temperature of the shell of the battery module 1 is continuously less than 60°C or the gas sensor 6 does not detect that the battery cell 4 releases a specific gas, the battery pack master controller controls the solenoid valve 12 to be closed, the vacuum pump to be closed, and the buzzer to release a monitoring signal to prompt the management personnel to pay attention to the battery status, forming a secondary warning.
[0039] In this embodiment, Figure 1 The electromagnet is powered off, and the spring 16 pulls the insulation layer 13 to expand, thereby shielding the battery module 1 and closing the exhaust hole 7. When the temperature sensor 11 detects that the internal temperature of the shell of the battery module 1 is greater than or equal to the second threshold and continues to rise, the second threshold is set to 100°C, the battery pack master controller controls the buzzer to issue an alarm and prompts personnel to evacuate; when the temperature sensor 11 detects that the internal temperature of the shell of the battery module 1 is less than 100°C, and the gas sensor 6 monitors that the concentration of the specific gas is constantly increasing, indicating that the release rate of the specific gas is constantly increasing, the battery pack master controller controls the buzzer to issue an alarm and prompt personnel to evacuate; when the gas sensor 6 monitors that the release rate of the specific gas is reduced or unchanged, the battery pack master controller controls the buzzer to release a signal, prompting maintenance, forming a three-level warning.
[0040] The lithium-ion battery safety storage device has a three-level warning function, takes corresponding warning control measures for the battery module 1 in different states, responds promptly to thermal runaway hazards, and has high safety. The lithium-ion battery safety storage device is simple and practical, with a clear path, low material cost, and easy function implementation. It ensures the stability and safety of the battery module and battery pack during operation as a whole, and reduces the losses caused by thermal runaway disasters.
[0041] In this embodiment, Figure 2 and Figure 5 There are multiple battery cells 4 in the battery module 1 , and the battery cell safety valves on the multiple battery cells 4 are all facing the exhaust hole 7 and are all oriented parallel to the plate surface of the liquid cooling plate 5 .
[0042] The lithium-ion battery safety storage device changes the traditional way of placing battery cells, avoiding direct damage to objects or people above the battery pack through thermal runaway high-temperature gas production and jet flames, and is conducive to the rapid discharge of high-temperature gas from the exhaust hole 7 and the suction hole 8, which can protect the safety of battery pack components and users to a greater extent.
